GENERAL INFORMATION
K-ROW 23 is a chloride free, clear to slightly yellow liquid solution
containing 23% K20 and 8 % plant available sulfur. Each gallon of
K-ROW 23 contains approximately
2.7 Ibs of potassium (KP) and 1 Ib
sulfur (S). K-ROW 23 is a seed safe product developed by TKI for starter
fertilizers applications (see recommendations).
University tests have
shown that K-ROW 23 is seed safe when used at recommended rates.
In fact, it was one of the safest materials tested in germination trials.
K-ROW 23 can be blended in any ratio with 10-34-0 or 11-37-0to provide
potassium and sulfur, critical nutrients for germinating crops, especially
in minimum or no-tillage conditions. Blends with UAN solution should
be jar tested before making large quantities. UAN blends should contain
enough water to equal the lesser amount of one of these products to
reduce crystal formation.
K-ROW 23 can be acidified to a pH of 5.6 to
form a stable acidic fertilizer for high pH soils.

POPUP AND STARTER FERTILIZERS
pop·up FERTILIZER: Corn: Pop-up or in-furrow placement, apply 1 to
3 gal/acre of K-ROW 23 along with ammonium polyphosphate
(APP).
By itself, apply 1 to 5 gal/acre of K-ROW 23 with the seed. Sandy or dry
soils reduce this rate by 50%.
Wheat: Apply 1 to 3gals/acre by itself or in combinations with APP.Follow
established rates for N + K with the seed for your area and/or soil type.
STARTER FERTILIZER (2 x 2 or 2 x 0):
Corn: Apply 1 to 9 gal/acre of K-ROW 23 with or without APP in a 2 X 2
(2 inches below and 2 inches to the side of the seed row) or 2 X 0
(2 inches tothe side of the seed row on the surface) placement. For sandy
or dry soils reduce rate by 50% when moisture is limiting.
Soybeans: Apply 1 to 6 gal/acre of K-ROW 23 in a 2 X 2 (2 inches below
and 2 inches to the side of the seed) or 2 X 0 (2 inches to the side of the
seed row on the soil surface) placement.

OTHER APPLICATIONS
K-ROW 23 can be soil injected or deep banded by itself or with nitrogen
and phosphorus to supply crops with N, P, K and 5 requirements for the
season. Deep banding can improve nutrient use efficiency by reducing
nutrient loss due to erosion and soil fixation. K-ROW 23 can also be
broadcast sprayed on soil surface or surface banded between rows to
help meet potassium and sulfur requirements. Follow soil and tissue test
recommendations to apply the proper amount of potassium and sulfur.
CAUTION (APPLICATION):
• Do not apply K-ROW 23 in drip or micro-irrigation
systems where
calcium and magnesium levels in the irrigation water are greater
than 100 ppm due to potential plugging of emitters.
• Do not acidify K-ROW 23 below a pH of 5.6.
